Dark Chocolate & Banana Ice-Lollies

These babies are gluten-free, vegan-friendly and super-delicious! Frozen bananas are enrobed in a high-quality dark chocolate and then rolled in roasted hazelnuts.

When you bite into these frozen treats, there’s a wonderful crack from the chocolate, which reveals the sweet, semi-frozen flesh of the banana. It’s a beautiful combination of flavors and textures, one that needs to be celebrated!

If that doesn’t convince you to make these babies, then you might like to know, that they’re actually good for you! They’re packed full of potassium, fiber, monounsaturated fats, phytochemicals and antioxidants.

You can make a big batch and freeze them in a container until needed. Simply enjoy them as you would with an ice-lolly (popsicle).
